This page introduces you to some of the special features included on the SU200. ■ Loop-Track Play: Play loop samples in unison, all at the same tempo (BPM) (→ Pages 18, 32) Although each sample has its own tempo setting, you can use this feature to play out multiple samples all at the same tempo. (You can also use an external MIDI clock to synchronize the playback.) ■ Powerful Effects and Filter (→ Pages 17, 36) Use the Loop Remix effect to rearrange break beats in real time. Or select from other dynamic effects, or apply a filter. You can control the characteristics of each effect using the ribbon controller and Effect Control knobs. ■ Clear User Interface • The backlit display makes it easy to view your panel settings. • Pads light up when pressed, so that you can easily see which pads are playing. • Effect buttons ([DIST] to [FILTER]) and the [SCRATCH] button light up when pressed, so that you can easily identify the effect that is currently selected. ● Apply effects and filtering to realtime audio input ( → Page 19) Apply filtering or an effects (TECH MOD, DIST/LO-FI, or DELAY) to input from an external audio source. ● Includes resampling capability (→ Page 26) Mix multiple samples (together with effects, scratch, and filter) and record the result as a single new sample. ● Includes a memory-card slot (→ Page 40) Use a memory card (SmartMedia card) to save and load sample data or WAV files. ● Allows simultaneous playback of samples recorded at different grades You can record a sample in any of four grades (quality levels). This allows you to economize on memory: use low grades for sounds that are not affected by the quality level, and use high grades for sounds that require high resolution (cymbal sounds, etc.). You can play all of these samples back at the same time. ● Can operate on battery power You can use the SU200 outdoors and in other locations where power connections are not available. 6  Contents

Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to use. Using an Optional AC Power Adaptor Z Make sure that the SU200’s STANDBY/ON switch is set to STANDBY. X Connect the optional AC adaptor (PA-3B or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to the power supply jack. C Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet. STANDBY ON DC IN X AC outlet PA-3B C To disconnect the adaptor: Set the STANDBY/ON switch to STANDBY, then unplug the adaptor from the AC outlet, and then disconnect it from the SU200 power supply jack. WARNING • Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from a standard electrical outlet. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the SU200. • Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the SU200, or during electrical storms. Using Batteries Z Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrumentís bottom panel. X Insert six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment. C Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place. 12 Power connections  ENGLISH NOTE • When the batteries need to be replaced, “Battry Low” may appear on the display, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and replace the batteries. • Even if batteries are installed, the SU200 will automatically switch to AC power when the AC adaptor is connected. • To conserve battery life, the display’s backlight remains off when the SU200 is running on batteries. CAUTION • When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. • Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time. • If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries from it, in order to prevent possible leakage of battery fluid. Switching On the Power Z Make the necessary connections. Connect up headphones or an output audio device. (See page 10.) X Lower the volume settings on the SU200 and the audio device. C Press the STANDBY/ON switch to set the power ON. The SU200 displays YAMAHA SU200 and then enters Pad-Play mode (see page 15). STANDBY ON CAUTION • Note that a samll amout of current continues to flow even while the switch is in the STANDBY position. If you are going to leave the SU200 unused for a prolonged period, be sure to disconnect the adaptor and (if batteries are installed) remove the batteries. V Adjust the volume by turning the VOLUME knob. Also adjust the volume at the external audio device.

This is the mode you use to play and edit your samples. All operating procedures presented in this manual assume that you are starting from Pad-Play mode. ●Sampling Mode This is the mode you use to record samples. You enter this mode by pressing the [REC] button, so that the REC indication appears in the display. ●Job Mode You use this mode to make various settings: pad settings, memory-card settings, and so on. You enter this mode by pressing the [JOB] button. NOTE • If you lose track of the current mode when working at the panel, you can return to Pad-Play mode by pressing the [EXIT] button one or more times (depending on the mode you are currently in). The SU200 Design 15  Quick Start Playing Samples The SU200 comes with samples recorded for all pads. You are now ready to start using the pads to play these prerecorded samples. Z Make the necessary connections. Connect up headphones or an output audio device. (See page 10.) X Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch on the SU200’s rear panel. The SU200 displays YAMAHA SU200 and then enters Pad-play mode. You can turn the power off by pressing the switch a second time. STANDBY ON CAUTION • Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the SU200 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument. C Pressing each pad plays a different sample. ●For example, try pressing and holding pad 1. Notice that the pad lights up and that a drum rhythm pattern repeats (loops) as long as the pad is held down. The playback stops when the pad is released. ●Next, try pressing pad 8. The pad lights up and you hear a cymbals sample, which plays once through and then stops. Notice that pad 1 is set for loop play: it continues to play the sample repeatedly as long as it is held down. Pad 8 is set for one-shot play: it plays the sample once through only. You are free to set each pad to play either loop or one-shot, and you can change the setting any time you wish. (See page 29.) NOTE • The SU200 provides eight pads and three banks, allowing you to store and play up to 24 samples. (Switching the bank changes you to a whole different set of samples.) In the examples given here we are using bank A. • The SU200 can play a maximum of 6 standard (or lower) grade monaural samples at one time, or up to 2 high-grade samples at one time. The maximum number may decline, however, when using the scratch or time stretch. 16 Quick Start BANK BANK BANK  Using the Effects and Filter ENGLISH The SU200 lets you to apply a variety of impressive effects to your samples. Now let's try using the EFFECT CONTROL knobs and the ribbon controller on the SU200's front panel. NOTE • Effects and scratch to not operate during playback of high-grade samples. EFFECT Control the effect by turning the EFFECT CONTROL knobs. z Press a pad. A-3 x Switch on the effect you wish to apply. c Turn the EFFECT CONTROL knobs to adjust the effect's parameters. Cuts the sound into discrete, intermittent slices. Breaks the sample into pieces and rearranges these to build a new phrase. LOOP REMIX SLICE DIST/ LO-FI DELAY Applies distinctive modulation and metallic tonality.

Allows you to change the tempo in real time. → Page 37 TIME 1 EFFECT CONTROL 2 Press the [FILTER] button once to set the filter on. You can then use EFFECT CONTROL knob 1 to control the filter’s resonance, and knob 2 to control the filter’s cutoff frequency. You can switch the filter off by pressing the [FILTER] button a second time. NOTE • The lower right of the display indicates the pad that was most recently pressed. The effect you choose will apply to the sample in this pad. SCRATCH Use the ribbon controller to produce a scratch sound. You can use the ribbon controller to scratch out a selected sample. This gives you a sound similar to what a DJ gets by manually turning a vinyl disc. c You can now scratch out the sample you selected (in this case, the sample for pad 3) by rubbing your finger along the ribbon controller. v You can switch off scratch operation by pressing the [SCRATCH] button once again. z Play a pad. S C R AT C H x Press the [SCRATCH] button. Assign a pad to the [SCRATCH] button. NOTE • When the [SCRATCH] button is off, the ribbon controller operates in the same way as EFFECT CONTROL knob 2. Quick Start 17  Using Loop-Track Play Use this feature to play loop samples from multiple pads simultaneously. The SU200 temporarily adjusts the tempo settings for each sample so that all of these samples play out at the same tempo (the same BPM setting). NOTE • Some samples may produce noise when used with Loop Track Play. Z Press the [LOOP TR PLAY] (“Loop Track Play”) button. Pads currently set for loop playback all begin playing in an endless loop. This operation is referred to as Loop-Track Play. LOOP TR PLAY When you set this button on, all samples currently set for loop playback begin playing out continuously, and the corresponding pads light up. All samples currently set to one-shot play remain off, and their pads remain dark. (See page 29.) LoopTr 132 X Press one of the pads that is currently playing (that is currently lit up). The pad goes dark, and the sample goes off. (The sample is muted.) Press the pad again, and sample’s playback resumes. (During Loop-Track Play, the pads for your loop sample act in the same way as mixer MUTE buttons.) C Tap three or four times. +1/YES –1/NO BPM or Tap three or four times. LoopTr 120 V Try pressing a pad for a non-looping sample (a pad set for one-shot playback). Pads set for one-shot playback are not affected by loop-track play. You can play these pads in the same way as usual: press the pad once to play the sample. B Press the [LOOP TR PLAY] button again to stop sample playback. LOOP TR PLAY Now that you have switched off loop-track play, try pressing pads 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 one at a time. Notice that these pads are all set to different tempos. During loop-track play, the SU200 automatically synchronizes the playback so that they all play out at the same tempo. Note that it is also possible to synchronize sample playback using an external MIDI clock. To use these feature, you need to set the SU200 for an external MIDI clock (using Job mode) and you need to connect a MIDI clock device to the SU200’s MIDI IN connector. 18 Quick Start  The “Audio In” feature lets you pass sound from a CD player, MD player, or other audio device through the SU200. You can switch the sound throughput on and off, and mix it with playback from sample pads 1 to 8. You are also free to apply an effect or filter to the sound as it passes through the SU200. Z Make the necessary connections. Switch off the SU200 and connect up a CD player or other audio source device. Also connect up an audio output device such as powered speakers or headphones.

Chapter 2 Playing the Pads 31  Using the [HOLD] Feature Use this feature when you want changes in effects and other settings to apply to a single selected pad, regardless of the order in which you are playing the pads. If you do not use the HOLD feature, changes you make in effects and other settings will apply to the last pad that you pressed. If you have "held" a pad, however, then all changes apply only to that pad (until you release the hold). To select a pad to be held. hold down the [HOLD] button and press the pad button. To release the hold, just press the [HOLD] button once again. If you have held a pad, the screen will display an mark. ● For example, assume that hold is off. You press pad 1, and then make an effect setting. The new setting applies to pad 1. Now you press pad 2, and then enter another setting. This time the setting applies to pad 2 (since that is the last pad you pressed). The target changes each time you press a different pad. ● Now assume that you hold down the [HOLD] button and press pad 1óso that pad 1 is held. Then you release both buttons. Next, you press various other pads and make various settings. In this case all settings apply to pad 1 only. You can stop playback by pressing the same pad or the [HOLD] button once again. Hold the pad down and press the [HOLD] button. Loop-Track Play Use this feature to play loop samples from multiple pads simultaneously. The basic operation was described in the Quick Start tutorial (see page 18). This section explains some important issues related to this type of playback. NOTE • Bass-phrase samples or bouncing rhythm-phrase samples may produce noise when used with Loop Track Play. An alternative approach in such cases is to use the job mode's time-stretch feature (instead of Loop Track play) to synchronize the BPMs of the samples you want to play together. Note, however, that if you do this, you will not be able to adjust the sample BPMs in real time). Changing the loop-track playback tempo (BPM) You can freely adjust the tempo used for loop-track play. The basic operation was described in the Quick Start tutorial (see Step 3 on page 18). Please note the following points. • The SU200 remembers the most recent loop-track playback tempo. When you resume loop-track play, the tempo restarts where it left off. (The tempo setting is retained even after the power is switched off.) • Some tempo distortion may occur if all of the selected loop samples are EXLG (extra long). Changing the sample’s tempo (bar-length) setting The SU200 lets you set a sample’s loop length to 1 bar or 2 bars (1 bar = 1 measure). This setting affects Loop-Track Play only. If you set the length to 1 bar, the sample loops once every bar. If you set the length to 2 bars, the sample slows down and loops once every two bars. For example, assume that you have set pads 1 and 2 for loop playback (see page 29). ● If pad 1 and pad 2 are both set to 1bar, Loop-Tray Play looks like this: Pad 1 Pad 2 32 Chapter 2 Playing the Pads Loop 1 Loop 2 Loop 1 Loop 2  ● If pad 1 is set to 2bar while pad 2 is still set to 1bar: Pad 2 Loop 1 Loop 1 Loop 2 Loop 2 Loop 3 Loop 4 You can change the bar-length setting from Pad-Play mode; simply select the pad and then press [-1/NO] or [+1/YES] to switch the setting. Note that the bpm (beats-per-minute) setting changes accordingly. –1/NO bpm 70 1bar bpm140 2bar +1/YES Try changing some of the bar settings. Press the [LOOP TR PLAY] button after making each change, so that you can hear how the sound changes. NOTE • You cannot convert from 1-bar to 2-bar if the 1-bar sample has a bpm above 115. You cannot convert from 2-bar to 1-bar if the 2-bar sample has a bpm lower than 120. Switching an effect to a different pad without changing the playback state To switch the effect to a different pad during Loop-Track Play without changing the playback state, hold down the [HOLD] button and press the pad that you want to move the effect to. Note that in this case the pad press will have no effect on the playback state of the pad’s sample (does not switch muting off or on, etc.). For more information, see page 36.

Chapter 3 Sample Editing 35 ENGLISH EXTRACT (Deleting The Unused Ends of a Sample)  Chapter 4 Effects You can use the SU200’s ribbon controller and EFFECT CONTROL knobs to apply an effect or filter to playback of any sample or to real-time audio input. The basic operation is described in the Quick Start tutorial (see page 17). This chapter provides a more detailed explanation about the effects, the filter, the scratch feature, and the time-stretch feature. NOTE • The scratch effect cannot be used in combination with the TIME effect, but can be used with any of the other effects or filters. • Effects, filters, and scratch do not operate during playback of high-grade samples. Selecting the Pad that Receives the Effect or Filter As explained in the Quick Start tutorial (see page 17), you select the pad that receives the effect (or filter) by (a) pressing the pad, and then (b) pressing the appropriate effect button. Note however, that pressing the pad also causes the pad’s sample to start or stop playback. In many cases—such as when you are in the midst of a performance and multiple pads are playing—you may want to move the effect to a different pad without starting or stopping playback of that pad’s sample. You can do this by holding down the [HOLD] button while pressing the pad. The following example shows how this works. Assume that the effect is originally assigned to pad 1, and that pads 1 though 5 are playing, with all other pads silent. ● Hold down the [HOLD] button and press pad 2. This cancels the effect for pad 1 and moves the effect to pad 2. The pad-2 sample continues playing. (Since you were holding [EXIT] down, playback did not stop when you pressed the pad.) A-2 ● Hold down the [HOLD] button again and press pad 7. The effect now moves to pad 7. Again, the pad-7 playback state remains unchanged (the pad-7 sample remains off). A-7 ● Now hold down the [HOLD] button once again and press the AUDIO IN pad. The effect will now apply to your audio input. The current audio-input state remains unchanged (in this case, remains off). AUdIO Pressing the [HOLD] button together with a pad also sets that pad as the “held” pad. (See page 32.) Effects, Filter, and Scratch As you can see from the panel, you are free to use any of the effects listed below. You can control the characteristics of each effect by turning EFFECT CONTROL knobs 1 and 2. ● LOOP REMIX This effect breaks the pad’s sample (the part between the start point and end point) into multiple pieces, and rearranges these pieces into a different order. Use this as an easy way to create new drum patterns out of existing 1-bar and 2-bar drum-pattern samples. 36 • Type.................... Controls how the sample is broken up. Turning knob 1 to the right increases the number of pieces (reducing the size of each piece). • Variation............. Turning knob 2 to the right increases the amount of reverse playback with the rearranged pieces. Chapter 4 Effects  ● SLICE • Type .................... Turn knob 1 to change the slice pattern. • Gate Time .......... Turn knob 2 to change the slice hold time. ● TECH MOD This effect applies a distinctive modulation and a metallic tonality. • LFO .................... The low frequency oscillator that generates the modulation. Turn knob 1 to control the LFO modulation effect. • MOD SPEED .... Turn knob 2 to change the modulation speed. ● DIST/LO-FI This effect adds edge distortion and produces a more lo-fi sound. • LO-FI .................. Turn knob 1 to vary the lo-fi (quality degradation) characteristics. • DRIVE ................ Turn knob 2 to change the amount of distortion. ● DELAY This effect adds a delay. • DELAY LEVEL .. Turn knob 1 to control the sound level of the delayed sound component. • TIME................... Turn knob 2 to control the delay time: the time between the start of the original playback and the start of the delayed playback. The delay time changes in accordance with the sample’s tempo (BPM). ● FILTER The filter removes a specific frequency range from the sample output, producing a change in the sound quality. • CUTOFF ............ Turn knob 2 to make the sound brighter or darker. • RESONANCE ... Turn knob 1 to apply distinctive resonance characteristics to the sound. Turning the knob heightens the overtones, resulting in a twanging sound similar to that produced by an analog synthesizer. ● SCRATCH This feature lets you use the ribbon controller to scratch out a selected sample. Rub the ribbon up or down to play the sample forward or in reverse, emulating the scratch sound produced by manually turning a vinyl disc. ● TIME (real-time tempo change) This feature changes the playback tempo in real time while introducing a distortion effect. z Hold down the pad you want to work on, and press the [TIME] button. x Tap on the [TAP] button or turn knob 1 to change the tempo. DATA TIME TIME REC TRGLVL or 1 EFFECT CONTROL 2 Tap 3 or 4 times at the desired tempo. * To cancel TIME operation, press the [TIME] button again NOTE • The SU200 can play a maximum of 6 standard (or lower) grade monaural samples at one time, or up to 2 high-grade samples at one time. The maximum number may decline, however, when using the scratch or TIME feature. • Loop Remix, Slice, TIME, and scratch do not work on audio input. • Loop Remix and Slice may generate noise when used with certain types of sound. • Loop Remix and Slice have no effect on pads that are set to one-shot play. • If you use Loop Remix on a sample for which loop-track play is off, you may notice a slight change in the sample's tempo. Chapter 4 Effects 37 ENGLISH This effect cuts the sample into rhythmical pattern of discrete, intermittent slices.  Chapter 5 MIDI Features This chapter explains the SU200’s MIDI features. MIDI IN JOB MIDI About MIDI What is MIDI? MIDI (for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface”) is a standard, internationally recognized interface for music-related digital communication among electronic instruments, computers, sequencers, and related devices. The interface allows different types of devices from different manufactures to exchange music performance data, music voice data, and other music-related information. MIDI Channels A single MIDI cable carries up to 16 channels of performance data. The channel concept is the same as with TV broadcasting: multiple channels are transmitted, and the viewer selects any one of these channels to be received. If you wish to control the SU200 from an external MIDI device, therefore, you need to set the SU200’s MIDI Receive channel to match the external device’s Send channel. MIDI Features Supported by the SU200 ● Use the clock from an external sequencer to control the timing of Loop-Track Play.

Chapter 5 MIDI Features 39  Chapter 6 Using Memory Cards Handling the Memory Card(SmartMediaTM*) Be sure to handle Memory Cards with care. Follow the important precautions below. * SmartMedia is a trademark of Toshiba Corporation. ■Compatible Memory Card Type 3.3V(3V) Memory Cards can be used. 5V type Memory Cards are not compatible with this instrument. ■Memory Capacity There are five types of Memory Cards: 2MB/4MB/8MB/16MB/32MB. A Memory Card with the memory capacity exceeding 32MB can also be used if it conforms to the standards of SSFDC (Solid State Memory Card Card: another name of SmartMedia) Forum. ■Inserting/Removing Memory Cards • To insert a Memory Card: Hold the Memory Card so that the connector section (gold) of the Memory Card is facing downward and forward, towards the Memory Card slot. Carefully insert the Memory Card into the slot, slowly pushing it all the way in until it is fitted in place. NOTE • Don’t insert the Memory Card in wrong direction. • Don’t insert anything other than a Memory Card in the slot. • To remove a Memory Card: Before removing the Memory Card, be sure to confirm that the Memory Card is not in use, or it is not being accessed by the instrument. Then pull the Memory Card out slowly by hand. If the Memory Card is being accessed*, a message (keep PwrOn) to indicate that it is in use appears on the instrument’s display. * It includes saving, loading, formatting and deleting. Also, be aware that the instrument will automatically access the Memory Card to check the media type when you enter job mode on. CAUTION • Never attempt to remove the Memory Card or turn the power off during accessing. Doing so can damage the data on the instrument/Memory Card and possibly the Memory Card itself. ■Formatting Memory Cards Before using a Memory Card with your instrument it must first be formatted. Once it is formatted all data on it will be erased. Be sure to check if the data is unnecessary for you or not, beforehand. NOTE • The Memory Cards formatted with this instrument may become unusable with other instruments. 40 Chapter 6 Using Memory Cards  ■About the Memory Cards To handle Memory Cards with care: There are times when static electricity affects Memory Cards. Before you handle Memory Cards, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch the metal parts such as a door knob and aluminum sash. Be sure to remove the Memory Card from the Memory Card slot when it is not in use for a long time. Do not expose the Memory Card to direct sunlight, extremely high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liquids. Do not place heavy objects on a Memory Card or bend or apply pressure to the Memory Card in any way. Do not touch the metal part (gold) of the Memory Card or put any metallic plate onto the metal part. Do not expose the Memory Card to magnetic fields, such as those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on the Memory Card, rendering it unreadable. Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a Memory Card. Also make sure that labels are attached in the proper location. • To protect your data (Write-protect): To prevent inadvertent erasure of important data, stick the write-protect seal (provided in the Memory Card package) onto the designated area (within a circle) of the Memory Card. Conversely speaking, to save data on the Memory Card, make sure to remove the write-protect seal from the Card. Do not reuse the seal that is peeled off. ■Data Backup For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep two copies of important data on separate Memory Cards. This gives you a backup if one Memory Card is lost or damaged. Chapter 6 Using Memory Cards 41 ENGLISH •  You can use memory cards to save and load sample data. You control memory-card operations using the SU200’s Job mode. 3.3V CARD JOB SAVE LOAD DELETE CARD Saving Data into a Memory Card The SU200 offers the following two methods for saving sample data into a memory card. ● Volume Save: Save all data from all SU200 samples into the card. ● Wave Export: Save a selected sample into the card as a WAV file. The “volume save” will save all samples together with all related settings. NOTE • These operations do not save settings related to the EFFECT CONTROL knobs and ribbon controller. • If the memory card does not have enough free space to hold the save, the SU200 displays an error message (see page 52) and cancels the save operation. If you wish to proceed, you must use a different card or delete one or more files from the current card. • The term volume refers to the entire set of SU200 sample data: all samples (waveform data together with settings) for all pads. • Before you can save data into a new memory card, you must format the card. (See page 47.) Z Insert a memory card into the card slot. 3.3V CARD X Switch off all pads, and then press the [JOB] button to enter Job mode.

Chapter 7 Other Useful Features 51  Reference Displayed Messages The SU200 displays a number of different messages. This section explains the most important of these messages. The batteries are running low and need to be replaced. For information about how to replace the batteries, see page 12. Upon displaying this message, the SU200 also sets on memory protection (see page 51), disabling all operations that write new data into memory and preventing entry into job mode. These operations remain disabled until the batteries are replaced. Battry Low! Do not switch the power off while this message is on the display. Switching the power off at this time may cause loss or corruption of your data. Keep PwrOn This message appears if SU200 sample memory becomes full while sample recording or resampling is in progress. Memory Full! Protct ed This message appears when you attempt to carry out sample recording, resampling, deletion, or extraction while memory protection is ON. (To enable these operations, you must switch protection OFF. See page 51.) Illgal Data! This message appears immediately following power-on if the SU200 detects corruption in its recorded data. This type of corruption can be caused, for example, by switching off power while the SU200 is in the process of writing data. The SU200 does its best to restore the bad data, but it is possible that some or all of your recorded data may be lost. If you find that the data is very corrupted, please reinitialize the SU200’s internal memory as shown below. ■Initializing the Memory BANK BANK BANK STANDBY ON Init Pad-Play Mode 52 Reference  The SU200’s receive buffer became full during reception of MIDI data (the SU200 was not able to keep up with the incoming data load). To correct the problem, reduce the quantity of data you are transmitting to the SU200. MIDI Err! An error occurred during reception of MIDI data. Check the cable connections and the MIDI settings at the SU200 and at the sending side. No Card! You attempted to execute a card-related operation while no memory card was present in the slot. No File! You attempted to execute a file-related memory card operation (load from card, or delete from card), but the file you specified does not exist on the card. Card Full! You attempted to save data into a memory card, but the card is already full. If you wish to save new data to the card, you must first free up space by deleting one or more files from the card. Write Err! The SU200 was unable to write data to the memory card. This error occurs when you attempt to format or save to a memory card that is write-protected or damaged. Bad Card! Format Err! Bad File! The memory card is damaged. The SU200 does not support the memory card's format. (The card was formatted by another device and cannot be read by the SU200.) The file on the memory card is corrupted or is unsupported. Empty Pad! You attempted to execute an operation that requires an existing sample (deletion, extraction, etc.), but the pad you selected is currently empty. Same Pad! If attempting to use time-stretch: You selected the same pad as both master and slave. If attempting to copy a sample: You selected the same pad as both the source and the destination. Illgal Grade You attempted to use a pad containing a high-grade sample when carrying out a function (such as resampling) that does not support high-grade samples. Reference 53 ENGLISH Buffer Full!  Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause No sound • Is your playback device (powered speakers, etc.) correctly connected? • The volume on the SU200 or the playback device may be set too low. • The pad volume setting (see page 51) may be too low. • Check that batteries are correctly installed, or that the power adaptor is correctly connected. (See page 12.) • Are batteries fresh? If batteries are old, try replacing them. • You may be trying to play an empty pad (a pad that does not contain a recorded sample). • Are the sample’s start and end points set correctly? • If you are using the filter, try changing the cutoff (see page 37). Some cutoff settings may cause all sound to go off. Sound is distorted. • The volume on the SU200 or the playback device may be set too high. • Are batteries fresh? If batteries are old, try replacing them. • Use of an effect or filter at certain settings may produce distortion.
